VIENNA (Reuters) - Iran has begun processing a new batch of uranium at its Isfahan nuclear plant despite U.S. and European pressure to halt all sensitive nuclear work, a diplomat said on Wednesday.

"Conversion has resumed," the diplomat, who is close to the International Atomic Energy Agency, told Reuters in Vienna. A spokesman for the U.N. nuclear watchdog did not confirm the information, but said IAEA inspectors were in Isfahan.
